God is There

God is there
C. S. Lewis speaking of God said,
“He shows much more of Himself to some people than to others-not because He has favourites, but because it is impossible for Him to show Himself to a man whose whole mind and character are in the wrong condition.”  C. S. Lewis.
The way I interpret this is we have to at the very least have an open mind as to whether God exists. If we close our mind to the existence of God then we will never see Him.
The Bible does not debate the existence of God. It opens with the words,

“In the beginning 

God created the heavens and the earth.” 

                                                                Genesis 1:1.

Believing in God is an act of faith. Billy Graham the great American evangelist said,

“I can't prove it scientifically, that there's a God,

 but I believe.” 

                                 Billy Graham.

God asks the individual accept by faith He exists, but not blind faith. He shows himself to all those who cares to look.

The psalmist states,

“The heavens declare the glory of God; 

the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” 

                                                             Psalm 19:1.

The writer of Hebrews tells us,
“In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.  
The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.” Hebrews 1:1-3.
Ultimately what you the individual believe about God comes down to an act of faith as to whether He exists or not, for that is what God asks of each individual. The writer of Hebrews stating,

“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for

 and certain of what we do not see.”  

                                                                 Hebrews 11:1

“And without faith it is impossible to please God,

 because anyone who comes to him must believe 

that He exists 

and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” 

                                                                            Hebrews 11:6.

Thus dear reader the choice is yours. Do you believe in God?
Please think about it. 

Look Deep into Nature

Look Deep into Nature
Albert Einstein one of the greatest scientist ever to live made an interesting statement. He said,

“Look deep into nature, 

and then you will understand everything better.”

                                                                 Albert Einstein

The psalmist writing several millenniums before Einstein’s birth wrote,

“The heavens declare the glory of God; 

the skies proclaim the work of his hands. 

Day after day they pour forth speech; 

night after night they display knowledge. 

There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard.” 

                                                                              Psalm 19:1-3.

I have always been of the opinion that science done correctly will show there is a creator behind it all. And science seems to be heading in that direction.
Scientist are looking into nature. They are seeing that everything from the largest galaxies to the smallest subatomic particles have all come together to allow life as we know it here on earth to exist.
To me that speaks of a creator.
Einstein noted,

“Human beings vegetables  or cosmic dust. 

We all dance to a mysterious tune, 

intoned in the distance by an invisible player.”

                                                              Albert Einstein.

I don’t know whether or not Einstein believed in God. I do know that his statement about we all being cosmic dust, dancing to a tune played an invisible player is true.
The Bible tells me,
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1.
In other words God created the very cosmic dust that makes up the Earth the Universe and everything in it, including mankind.
God is that “invisible player” Einstein spoke of.
The apostle Paul speaking in Athens said,
“The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands.  
And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else.  
From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.  
God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.”  Acts 17:24-27.
Mankind and the universe are God’s creation. But God did not make robots programmed to follow his every command. God gave man a freewill. In doing so he gave man the right to believe in him or not.
That being said, God asks each individual to believe in him by faith, but not blind faith, by informed faith.
God challenges the individual to look into the natural world and see how it is all interconnected. To see the intelligent design behind it all. Then decide where they will place their faith.
Thus the choice is yours. Do you believe in God or not?
Please think about it.
